Ethan Shanfeld In his final public appearance before the series finale of “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” Larry David joined MSNBC’s Ari Melber Friday night for a special discussion in Manhattan hosted by Tribeca Festival. David, a Brooklyn native whose distinctly New York Jewish comedy migrated to the golf courses of West Los Angeles, was warmly welcomed by an audience of a few hundred. He waved off a standing ovation before taking a seat.
When asked if he feels more Jewish when returning to New York, David scoffed: “Can I feel more Jewish? … That’s maxed out. But I do feel comfortable here.” After a highlight reel of “Curb Your Enthusiasm’s” funniest moments, Melber began the night by asking David to weigh in on issues of social etiquette — “Curb”-ian conundrums such as when it’s appropriate to leave a dinner party (“10 minutes after dessert”) and how long it should take to say goodbye to the host (“12 to 15 seconds”). David discussed buffet lines and the absurdity of the “next-day thank you text” with joy, but he hilariously dodged questions that required deeper reflection on his artistic process or body of work — a half-century’s worth of shaping American comedy with “Seinfeld” and “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” among other things.
When asked why “Curb” has endured for 24 years, David had a simple answer: “It’s funny.” When Melber read an AI bot’s analysis of “Curb” (it read, in part: “Psychologically, David’s comedy resonates because it taps into a fear of social ostracization”), David said, “I don’t put any thought into that whatsoever. Zero. I just try to write funny shows.
